What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to empower individuals through nutrition education and personalized coaching in a supportive environment.

I am a dedicated nutrition professional with a Master’s degree in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine, expected in August 2024. My journey in nutrition began with a Bachelor’s degree in Nutrition Science, followed by multiple Master’s degrees focusing on Health Education and Public Health. I have a strong commitment to promoting health and wellness through personalized nutrition coaching.

With over five years of experience as a Nutrition Coach at FIT365llc, I specialize in providing tailored nutrition education and fitness plans for children, teens, and adults. My background includes conducting nutrition classes for youth and supporting families in achieving their health goals. I have also gained valuable experience through internships and clinical roles, where I developed meal plans and worked closely with licensed clinicians.
